Dyslexic woe is me!

Its official I have just done the worst audition of my life!, not only did my phone go off even though I thought I had switched it off, I had a sightreading disaster!. I managed to loose my specs in a river last week whilst battling with a swarm of angry bees, flapping my arms about like a demented woman and I knocked them in. I has to result to using my contact lenses today which don't correct my asigmatisum (god knows how you spell that!)It was so bad I had to take them out during the audition, god it gets worse!. I am also dyslexsic and didn't ask for the script in advance, stupid I know but I worry that it may effect my chances of landing a role. Of course having now done a pants audition I regret this decision. I would welcome any comments on how people cope with this condition and if anyone has experence of being prejudiced because of dyslexia.
